ONE MORE FLOOR. ONE MORE SPELL. Become a pixel-art wizard in an endless dungeon. Your wizard walks and fires arcane bolts automatically. You control the spells, timing, and escape. COMBINE THE ELEMENTS Launch fireballs, freeze enemies with Frost Nova, chain lightning through crowds, and protect yourself with Aegis. Follow frost with fire for Thermal Shock or lightning for Shatter. Tap the floor to blink away from danger. Blink has no cooldown, but each cast costs mana. AN ENDLESS, CHANGING CHALLENGE Explore randomized chambers across moss-covered halls, frozen archives, and fiery depths. New layouts, waves, enemies, and floor conditions keep each run changing. Difficulty rises as you descend, with a guardian every five floors from a roster of 23 bosses. BUILD YOUR WIZARD'S LEGACY Earn wizard XP even when a run ends in defeat. Spend talent points across Fire, Frost, Storm, and Arcane, and reset your choices freely at home. Restore your wizard tower, research starting relics in the Library, equip familiars in the Sanctuary, and display guardian trophies in the Hall. BANK YOUR TREASURE After every cleared battle, choose Bank Shards & Leave to keep every earned shard. Or take a stackable relic and choose between a restorative Moonwell and a stronger cursed route. Spend your wallet on permanent upgrades or a whole new look. 176 COSMETICS TO COLLECT Mix robes, hats, staffs, animated auras, and spell colors. Start with five pieces, buy 125 more with earned shards, and earn 46 through boss challenges. Record first victories, flawless victories, and stronger-form victories in your boss journal. Preview each look before spending. Cosmetics never change combat power. LEAVE YOUR MARK Connect to Apple Game Center to compare your deepest cleared expedition floor and earn eight achievements. Try the daily seeded trial with equal starting stats and its own local personal best. PLAY FREE, OR GO AD-FREE FOREVER Ads can appear at cleared-floor breaks, with at least two minutes of active dungeon play between ads. The first two floors of your first run are ad-free. A single optional purchase permanently removes every ad. No subscriptions, paid spells, or purchased power. Restore with the same Apple Account. Progress is saved on your device. Game Center is optional and does not back up your wallet or wardrobe. Unfinished runs do not resume after closing the app.
